Chapter 494 The dark tide is surging

Cao Cao looked at everyone, laughed and said, "It seems that I don't have time to lead you to unify the world!" Everyone couldn't help but feel sad. Xu Chu, who was big and thick, suddenly turned red in his eyes, and even shed tears, clasped his fists and shouted, "Prime Minister, don't say that! The Prime Minister will definitely get better! When the Prime Minister's illness is cured, we will follow the Prime Minister to wipe out Lu Bu and Liu Bei and unify the world!" The generals agreed one after another.

Cao Cao smiled and felt very relieved. Then he couldn't help but feel a regret in his heart, that is, his life is not long, but his beloved young daughter Cao Ying is not by his side. At this moment, he couldn't help but regret his decision. In order to dominate the world, he actually married his beloved daughter to Lu Bu! However, thinking that she loved Lu Bu like that and was under house arrest by him for a long time, she could not forget about Lu Bu. Her heart was always the same. He couldn't help but feel that it was not wrong for her daughter to marry Lu Bu. Her happiness was the most important thing! At this point, he couldn't help but smile. Then he became jealous of no reason in his heart, jealous of the old boy Lu Bu, that old boy was no younger than him, and could actually win the hearts of many beauties. God is so partial to Lu Bu!

Cao Cao threw these messy thoughts behind his head, looked at everyone, pointed to the mahogany brocade box placed on the table, and said, "The order I wrote is placed here. I won't hand it over to you now. When I have an accident one day, you will open the brocade box and take it out and read it in public!" Then his eyes became sharp, and he glanced at everyone, and said, "Any order from this brocade box is my own order! You must obey. If someone makes excuses and argues, it is rebellion and everyone will be punished!" Everyone's hearts were terrified and they bowed together, "I (the last general) obeys the order of the Prime Minister!"

Cao Cao nodded, and couldn't help feeling very tired. He leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes, muttering to himself, "I'm tired, I want to sleep for a while. You all go down." Everyone bowed and agreed and left the bedroom. Shortly after everyone left, a young woman wearing a narrow waist and long skirt came in with a wooden plate. When Cao Cao heard the movement, he couldn't help but open his eyes and saw the woman. He couldn't help but show a little warmth in his eyes, calling out, "Huan'er!" When the woman heard this, she quickly put down the wooden plate and walked over quickly. It turned out that this woman was not someone else, but Cao Chong's mother, Mrs. Huan.

Cao Pi hurried to Sima Yi's thatched cottage where he lived in seclusion outside the city, but Sima Yi was not seen. He hurriedly looked around. After a while, Cao Pi saw Sima Yi sitting by the water not far away, fishing. Cao Pi couldn't help but smile and rushed over. He came to Sima Yi and bowed: "Sir..."

Sima Yi smiled, did not say hello, nor looked at Cao Pi, and said, "The second young master came suddenly. I guess he encountered something difficult, right?"

Cao Pi sighed and asked without answering, "Sir, is my father's condition getting worse?" Sima Yi said, "Of course I know." Then he couldn't help but sigh, "The Prime Minister was a great hero who was born in the world, but he didn't expect that the great cause would not be fulfilled, and the world would not tolerate it!"

Cao Pi couldn't help but sigh a little, and then said, "I heard that my father sealed his last order in a brocade box. I really don't know what it said inside?"

Sima Yi smiled and said, "Young Master wants to know who the Prime Minister is determined to be the heir?" Cao Pi smiled and praised, "You can't hide anything from your sir!" Sima Yi said, "It's not difficult to know this. Second Master, are the Prime Minister's bedroom no longer allowed to get close to you?" "That's right. Why do you know?" Sima Yi smiled and said, "This is inevitable." Then he asked, "Is there a lady who can go to the bedroom to take care of the lord?"

Cao Pi nodded and said, "Mrs. Huan is particularly favored by her father, so she can serve in front of her father's bed!" Then her expression changed and she said in surprise: "Is it possible..." Sima Yi sighed and said, "I didn't expect that the Prime Minister chose him in the end!"

Cao Pi quickly calmed down and smiled bitterly: "This is something that is expected! My father is very fond of Mrs. Chong for Mrs. Huan. This prince's throne has long been the thing in his possession!"

Sima Yi suddenly asked, "Second Young Master, are you willing?" Cao Pi was stunned, frowned slightly, and said nothing. Sima Yi looked at Cao Pi, and his eyes emitted a divine light as if he wanted to see through Cao Pi completely. He asked again, "Second Young Master, are you willing?" Cao Pi couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Isn't willing! How can I be willing? My father chose to fight against my brother because of his personal love. How can I be willing? If my father chose my eldest brother, I would have no complaints!..."

Sima Yi's expression suddenly eased, he turned his head and continued to look at the fish float on the water, and said lightly: "Since that's the case, then I'll do my best to help the second young master!"

Cao Pi was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Thank you, sir!" Sima Yi said, "The second son doesn't need to thank me. I help the second son not because of the second son. It's just because I don't agree with the prime minister's choice. As the second son said, the prime minister chose Cao Chong's son just because of his personal love and love, and did not make the right choice. It is true that Cao Chong's son is extremely intelligent, and it is naturally more than enough to be a master of success. However, today there is no peace. Although Cao Chong's son is smart, he loses his kindness! With Cao Chong's son ascending the throne, let alone competing with the tiger and wolf Lu Bu, even facing Liu Bei, he may suffer a great loss!"

Cao Pi couldn't help but ask, "Who is the most suitable person to inherit the throne in the eyes of the gentleman?"

Sima Yi smiled slightly and said, "The Second Young Master asked, knowingly!" Cao Pi couldn't help laughing, bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness!" Then he asked in confusion: "Does my elder brother think that my elder brother is not suitable for inheriting the throne?" Sima Yi smiled and said, "The Second Young Master knows, but he comes to ask me. The eldest young master is loyal and heavy, and he is not good at vain. If he is asked to be responsible for something, no one among the young masters can compare with him. However, because he is too loyal and heavy, if he inherits the throne, he is afraid that he cannot distinguish between loyalty and treacherous, and it is good to make him a general and a minister, but if he is allowed to take charge of the position of lord, it is probably a big disaster!"

Cao Pi couldn't help but sigh, "Sir, your eyes are so good! My brothers and others are naked in front of you!" Sima Yi smiled and said, "The second young master is too much!"

Cao Pi paused and couldn't help asking: "Sir, what should I do in this situation at the moment?"

Sima Yi smiled slightly and signaled Cao Pi to come over. Seeing this, Cao Pi immediately came over. Sima Yi whispered in Cao Pi's ear. Cao Pi's eyes lit up and praised: "A clever plan! A clever plan!"

On the official road from Jingzhou to Xuchang, a caravan was moving rapidly. As long as Lu Bu and Cao Cao were not in a state of war, their trade and personnel exchanges were never banned. Because both sides knew very well that trade was beneficial to them.

In an inconspicuous carriage in the caravan, a young woman in Huaxin was leaning against a heroic and powerful man with tears in her eyes, looking very haggard. Friends should have guessed it when they saw this. Yes, this charming young woman in Huaxin was no one else, Cao Cao's youngest daughter Cao Ying, and the heroic man who hugged her was her husband, Lu Bu, and this place should be called Ailang.

Not long ago, Ailang and his group left Shouchun in disguise and took a detour to Jingzhou, and then went from Jingzhou to Xuchang. The commercial exchanges between Xuchang and Jingzhou have far exceeded those before this period. Countless caravans traveled and shuttled across the official road. The caravans of Ailang and his team were mixed in and out of the sea, which was like fish entering the sea, and were completely unattractive.

"Brother, do you think Daddy is going to be a problem?" Cao Ying couldn't help asking, looking at Ailang with a look of hope. Ailang patted her shoulder and smiled and said, "Don't worry! How could my father-in-law have something to do with his body? I think this matter is just a rumor!" Cao Ying couldn't help but let go of her worry when she heard Ailang's words. He leaned in his arms and couldn't help but mutter to herself: "Dad has loved me the most since she was a child! I will be satisfied with any father I want, but other brothers and sisters don't have such treatment!... Once,

It was probably when I was eight or nine years old. I saw the stars in the sky shining brightly like a jade. I liked it very much, so I clamored for the stars and moon in the sky!..." Cao Ying said this, and couldn't help but smile. Her thoughts seemed to have completely returned to the past. "Such an unreasonable request, but Dad agreed. Not long after, Dad brought a large basin of clear water and told me that the moon and the stars were brought to me! I looked into the basin curiously and saw the bright moon and the stars surrounding it! I was so happy at that time!..."

Ailang couldn't help laughing. Cao Ying couldn't help but withdraw her thoughts and said to Ailang: "Brother, are you laughing at me?" Ailang hugged Cao Ying and smiled: "I don't laugh at you. I just think that my little Yingying was so cute when she was a child! I like it so much!" Cao Ying couldn't help but smile happily, feeling that she was really a very happy woman, and she couldn't help but move her arms! However, the father's affairs suddenly came to her heart, making the joy and happiness in her heart disappear in an instant, and she couldn't help but sigh!

The group walked along the official road, and before they knew it, they arrived at the Yexian Pass, more than a hundred miles southwest of Xuchang. At this time, it was approaching dusk, and the officer guarding the pass stopped Ailang and his group and asked, "Where did it come from? Where did you go? What do you want to do?" Zhuge Mengxue, who was dressed as a man, immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This military master, we are from the Li Family Silk and Satin Village in Jingzhou, and we are selling silk to Xuchang." At this time, Zhuge Mengxue was dressed as a man, so he naturally would not wear a shiny curtain.
